I've started looking for a new job and a few weeks ago had a first stage phone interview, a second stage in-person interview and a final third stage in-person interview. It was extremely difficult to get the time off work to attend them because they were in London (where I'm trying to relocate) which is a 35 minute commute each way for me. It meant that I needed to take 2 x half days of leave and I work in a very deadline-driven role in a small company with no HR department so there were lots of questions asked about why I needed the time off.
I didn't get the job and now I'm in a very difficult position because I just don't know how I could possibly get more time off if I have to attend more multi-stage interviews. For my current job, I just attended one interview and was offered the job 2 hours later.
How have other people juggled time off for multiple interviews? Especially if you don't get the job and need to do that 3 or 4 times over? It's giving me sleepless nights!
